Magdalen Berns Appreciation Thread

Magdalen, I only know you from your videos which are awesome. So funny and insightful - they make the sharpest of points. Thank you for all you have done for women, your contribution is huge. Xxx

Magdalen, you are a legend. It's hard to find the words to celebrate you, as MNers have said how important it is to shine sunlight on these issues, you are that sunlight, making us laugh and showing us the obvious truth and giving us strength to keep telling that truth.

Smart, witty, straight talking.

"Receipts please?!"

You marked a milestone for me, thank you so much, safe onwards journey. You are loved.

Thank you Magdalen, for everything. You are an amazing woman who has done amazing things and I am so grateful, always.

ZOMBIE and out of date thread

I hope that someone is reading all the messages of love and appreciation of Magdalen that are all over social media to her.

Thank you so much Magdalen, for your intelligence, humour, courage and just downright wonderfulness. You have helped so many people to understand and find words for what is going so badly wrong for women.

You have made a huge impact on the world, which will not go away.

As with so many women, Magdalen's videos were one of the first things I came across in my understanding of gender.
Amazing woman.

Magdalen you have inspired and empowered us with your insightful words.

Thank you for being your unique and brilliant self and I’m sure everyone here wishes for you to be surrounded by love, comfort and peace.

You are a fucken hero Magdalen and will go down in history as one who loudly proclaimed the emperor has no clothes, with zero shits given.

The UK is currently one of the world leaders in standing up for women's rights against the onslaught of trans activism.

I genuinely don't think we'd all be where we are now without Magdalen.

She has given so many of us the courage to speak the truth.

Watching Magdalen's videos gave me courage to be more outspoken too - so funny, direct, not taking any shit.

Magdalen - I hope you know how much positive change you've created in the world.

Please don’t post those kind of rumours here. I appreciate that you don’t mean any harm. However, we shouldn’t spread those kind of rumours.

That twitter thread is NOT an update.

It was posted 2 days before the tweet saying she has moved to palliative care.

Magdalen is a warrior who has inspired many women to become involved the the fight to retain womens rights and spaces. Her blogs were what first made me realise that women had a fight on their hands to protect themselves and their children.
She is legend ❤

Much love to Magdalen x

She's rockers, an inspirational woman.

@Patnotpending it’s an old thread, recently added to.

To Magdalen again 💐🌺
Inspirational funny clever

OP, that Twitter link takes me to tweets from 2018. Is there a more up-to-date thread you could link to?

She is a huge inspiration. Her clarity of thinking and witty expression is unmatched, in my opinion. Her vidoes are what finally pushed me over the peak and into firm gender critical territory. Fuck glioblastoma, an utterly shitty thing to have happened to an amazing woman. Much love to Magdalen.

There seems to be a rumour on Twitter that MB has passed away.

She is very sadly in palliative care but I'm sure she is still with us.

Sending love Magdalen Berns

♥️

I admire her, I wish her comfort and rest after that incident.

I know, her videos are amazing and she comes across as someone I would love to count among my friends. It is awful that she is sick

Best wishes to Magdalen and very sorry that she’s been having such a very rough time.

I had no idea she was ill! She is an amazing woman - her videos are so spot on.

All the more reason for the rest of us to raise our heads above the parapet, speak out in our own names - only 8 weeks and 1 day until the consultation about changes to the law comes to an end. Now or never really.

@MagdalenBerns
Had some more troubling fits yesterday and ended up sirens blaring to A&E in the a.m. - they were worried in case it was a stroke. Fitted some more on arrival, got sedated, spent night under observation but glad to be home now & my right side seems to have gone back to "normal".

Berns is poorly, and very brave, and inspires me, for one, to keep going with this, in her name. One of her tweets urging us to have courage was followed up by a woman in Pussy Riot urging the same.

She's also got a fine giggle.
